Li Quan's family was also a businessman, but because his aunt married into the imperial merchant Fu family, her status was slightly higher than that of ordinary businessmen. Fortunately, his second uncle, who won the move, helped the Fu family to fight the pawn, and found a seven-grade county order, because the evaluation was all excellent over the years, so he was promoted to the capital, and made a temple from the fifth grade in Taichang Temple.

Taijoji Temple is a place dedicated to the sacrificial service. The standard Qingshui Yamen does not have much oil and water. In the capital, which is full of high-ranking officials, Cong Wupin is a sesame petty official.

It is not easy to live in Beijing, and the Li family's money depends on business, and this is also the reason why the Li family does not go to the capital, but stays in the capital. Here, others know that the Li family has an official from the fifth grade, and he will respect himself to some extent, if he goes to the capital, not to mention the big cost, I am afraid that he will not even be able to raise his head.

"Well, where did you get this tea?" Li Jiashi tea merchant. I have my own tea mountain, tea shop and tea house, but I have never seen such tea.

What Liu Yunyang gave Li Quan to drink was just ordinary tea fried by Yunxiang, and the water was just ordinary water. It's not that he's stingy, she can vaguely feel the magic of her sister, but she's reluctant to reveal it to outsiders.

To be honest, Yunxiang's skill of roasting tea with one hand is still learned from the old artists inherited by the nation, and it is not very clever. However, this space is different from the previous Chinese civilization. The people here have just come out of the era of cooking tea with spices, and the tea leaves have not been finely processed. It's just a simple stir-fry and sun.

However, Yunxiang roasted tea follows the steps of finishing, spreading, rolling, drying, secondary rolling, and modeling. Naturally, it tastes much better than local tea.

"This is my sister playing with herself. Can you still get into the mouth? Liu Yunyang couldn't afford to drink tea at home before. Later, I bought the coarsest big leaf tea to drink, and there was no excess, and I drank Yunxiang's tea directly. Either it is brewed with spiritual spring water, or it is directly the tea collected by Yunxiang in the space. Now it is a spiritual tea that grows directly in the space.

He never drank the tea that he bought at home to entertain guests, and even when he accompanied guests, he rarely ate a teacup. So, he didn't feel the gap exactly.

Li Quan took another sip, only to feel that the previous tea could not be eaten. "After the exam, you ask Sister Ling, is this recipe for roasted tea willing to be sold? I won't be stingy. ”

Liu Yunyang thought about it. "Fangzi, it's hard to say, but after the exam, Brother Li can go to my house to talk to my sister."

Li Quan's hand paused for a moment. "You want to talk to your sister?" Is this Liu family actually the girl in charge?

"Hmm. Our family can have this day. The credit is all my sister's. Liu Yunyang was not embarrassed at all, but had a look of honor.

Li Quan thought of all the rumors about this Liu Yunxiang before, and felt in his heart that not only this Liu Yunyang, but also this family was not a thing in the pool, and he would definitely get up in the future.

At this meal, the two of them ate fresh things. These things can't be stored for a long time, and they are just going to be eaten today and tomorrow.

After eating, the two went back to their rooms. Put the board together and get ready for a good rest. Early tomorrow morning. Someone will do a second check, and then it's time for the official exam.

The ninth day of August is the first session of this exam, try to "Analects", "The Mean" or "University", "Mencius", a poem with five words and eight rhymes, four scriptures, each of the three questions and four books in the initial field must write more than 200 words, and the four questions need to write more than 300 words.

On the 12th, the second session is to try the Five Classics, and to try the edict, judgment, table, and edict, and the argumentative essay is required to be more than 300 words.

On the 15th, the third session was held, and the five current affairs were tried to express their opinions or opinions on the current affairs and government affairs at that time in combination with the theories of scriptures.

From entering the Gongyuan on the seventh day of the first month to coming out on the sixteenth, it took ten days to complete a township test. Although I can come out after handing in the papers every three days, I have to rush back in the afternoon. People close to home can go home for a meal and take a bath. Some people who are far away simply don't come out, and they also save money from the guest house.

The township test will be released in September, and more Yin, Chenri Branch, Chen is a dragon, Yin is a tiger, and the meaning of the dragon and tiger list is taken; And because it is autumn, osmanthus is in full bloom, so it is also called osmanthus list.

When the list is released, the chief and deputy examiners, supervisors, housing officials, promotions, and invigilators gather in the public hall to open the ink scroll and seal it to verify the names and places of origin of the Chinese-style examiners; After verification, hand over the scribe's roll call, and fill in the main list after singing.

The list is written from the sixth place, and the top five are written after the last name is written, and the top five are written backwards from the fifth place to the first place, which is called the "Five Classics".

Jing Kui's roll call voice is very high, and he is said to be noisy. After filling in the five classics, fill in the sub-list. After filling in the whole list, the list will be stamped with the provincial governor and the customs defense, and it will be carried in the yellow silk color hall, and under the escort of the drum honor guard, it will be sent to the provincial political envoy department and the governor's office to hang it in front of it.

"Mother, what are you doing here? Don't you already know that your brother understands the yuan? Yun Xiang looked at Zhou who was still nervous with amusement. Not long ago, Gu Mo had already sent someone to send gossip. The entire Dongxuan Mansion is his territory, and naturally the news is much better than others.

"Isn't this a list that hasn't been posted yet? If I don't see it with my own eyes, how can I rest assured? Zhou smiled embarrassedly, "It's not that I don't believe in Master Gu, but I just think that everything came a little suddenly." ”

Liu Yunyang looked at Zhou helplessly, "Mother, you can't trust me like that?" ”

"Why! Mother, this is happy! Zhou said that the corners of his eyes were already a little moist, "Mother's life is worth it." ”

Yun Lian hurriedly covered Zhou's mouth, "Bah, mother, where is this?" You're in this life, in this life! Yunyang won the lifting at the age of fourteen, although he is not in a hurry to take the exam again, but maybe he can give you a champion and come back! There is also Yunsheng, although Enke did not take the test this time, but in two years, he will be a little talent. You've had a lot of time to enjoy yourself! Don't worry. ”

Zhou took Yun Lian's hand down funny, "I know!" Stop talking nonsense, I heard that there was a buzz outside, is the list coming out? ”

Liu Yunsheng has been standing at the window, nine times out of ten, the people in this restaurant are here to see the list, and every window is full of people. "It's out! The first thing to paste is the sub-list, and the name of the five lists is still covered! ”

The whole family stood up and moved to the window to stand still. From time to time, there will be jubilant sounds from the crowd below, and it is natural that the people watching the list are raising people. Yun Xiang thought of Fan Jinzhongju, who had studied before, and looked at the people who were crying and laughing below, and felt a lot of emotion.

"Five Classics! Five Classics! "It's almost time to take the sub-list to watch, and the people watching the excitement below start to coax.

The honor guard soldier erected a ladder, climbed to the position where the Five Classics were posted, and shouted loudly, "In this township test, the fifth place in high school, Du Tiantao of Huixian County." ”

"Fourth place, Huali County Niu Ben."

"Third place, Fucheng Li Quan."

"This year's Yayuan Gong is Zhou Haiyu of Shanyin County."

"This Xie Yuangong is Qunshan County, Liu Yunyang." (To be continued......)
